About Digimon
Digimon has ten TV series since 1999 and most reset the world each time. Only one chain connects: Adventure, Adventure 02, the tri. films, Last Evolution Kizuna and Adventure 02: The Beginning. Tamers, Frontier, Data Squad, Xros Wars, Appmon, the 2020 Adventure reboot, Ghost Game and Beatbreak each stand alone.
Release order is the recommended order and matches story order for the Adventure chain. Beatbreak premiered October 5, 2025, entered its Tactics Arc in January 2026 and airs now, so this post stays ongoing.
Good to know
Xros Wars totals 79 episodes across its three arcs including The Young Hunters. The 2020 Adventure is a full reboot, not a sequel, despite reusing the cast. tri. is a six-part theatrical series from 2015 to 2018. Dub names differ: Savers aired in English as Data Squad and Xros Wars as Fusion.
